This sword is amazing. When you first hold it you will be amazed! While you know better than to strike a tree with it, you will be very tempted. As seen in Advent Children, Kadaj's double bladed Katana is rumored to be another form of Sephiroth's Masamune, thus the blades combine length wise to form the extremely long Masamune (blades don't actually combine on this item). Blades are sharp and extend deep into the handle, double full tang. While this is a very solid piece it is for display purposes only. The functionality of this sword is untested. Overall length of this item is approximately 44 inches and it is very heavy. The handle is the ideal length width and shape to hold two blades, AMAZING!. Get yours before they are sold out!
